A framework agreement aimed at valorizing Piedmont hazelnuts has been signed between Coldiretti Piemonte and the Novi Elah Dufour confectionery group. The supply chain project seeks to leverage all of Piedmont's hazelnut production, providing a promising medium-term perspective for agricultural entrepreneurs. The Piedmontese hazelnut sector, with 2,000 companies and a production of around 200,000 quintals, is valued at nearly 80 million euros. The agreement is set to strengthen the connection between agriculture and industry, with a focus on the high-quality Tonda Gentile Trilobata variety. The agreement will be renewed for another 5 years, underscoring the commitment to quality and territorial representation in the hazelnut industry.
